According to the American Pet Products Association, more than 19 million dogs wear a Collar daily with an upwards of 26,000 collar strangulation accidents that occur to those dogs each year.
Golden Daily Scoop received a KeepSafe Break-Away collar from PetSafe to review and help spread the word about pet strangulation. All thoughts and opinions are our own. PetSafe is not responsible for the content of this article.
To coincide with National Animal Safety and Protection month, PetSafe® is celebrating it's second annual Collar Safety Week by educating pet owners and professionals about the risks of strangulation and dangers associated with traditional collars.
Where Can Collar Strangulation Happen?
- Two or more dogs playing together
- Fences and Decks
- Crates and Kennels
- Heating and Cooling Vents
- Shrubs and Branches
Designed to prevent dogs from getting entangled by their collars, the PetSafe® KeepSafe® Break-Away Collar was invented by Tenney Mudge after the devastating loss of her beloved dog, Chinook, to a collar strangulation accident.
Keep The Ones You Love Safe
The collar features a patented break-away safety buckle that releases when pressure is applied or it gets caught on something, allowing it to fall off harmlessly and reduce the risk of strangulation or injury to the pet.
This collar can be put on your dog just like an ordinary collar with a buckle making sure you can fit two fingers under the collar. Note: If you have to restrain your dog, grasp the collar around the break-away buckle, otherwise the collar may release and your dog will be loose.
The KeepSafe collar also has a metal D-ring on each side of the breakaway buckle, which can be used to attach ID tags and can be clipped together with a leash so pet parents can safely walk their dogs using the collar.
PetSafe has developed an informative video and infographic to help pet parents protect their dogs.
